Somehow, i think i now understand why it was ok for bbrv to insult quite a few of the regular Amiga.org visitors (nicely calling them 'morons').

Oh well... :-(

I think we all known what i am talking about. But somehow, the topic got closed by request and misteriously dissapeared in the tons of other topics...

Amiga.org hasn't lost being neutral, it has just lost its neutrality (as was demonstrated with the example i talked about).

it's simple really. When you are sponsored, you are not neutral anymore. You know it, we all know it. And the more money they give, the less neutral you become.

You may pretend otherwise, but it just is the way it works, everywhere in the world.

You just sold the soul of Amiga.Org, the finest (until a few months ago) website there is/was.

If you want a site that only hosts Amiga Inc news


That was not the point. I think it should not have been sponsored by either AInc or Genesi.

But i rest my case...it's not important really. I just don't like to be called a moron for showing my support to Hyperion. The fact that bbrv was allowed to insult a lot of visitors pissed me off...
